60IN60 Day 33 - Fri Feb 8

It’s Day 33 and we’re in Exodus 13.


Sometimes things get busy and you miss a day or two.  Don’t get discouraged and quit.  Just lay aside those readings you missed and jump in with today’s reading.
Where God Spoke To Me:
- Verse 17 - He knows we're fickle and sometimes chooses the long way around just to keep from getting so discouraged that we give up. 

Help:
- Verses 1-16 - Why this long discussion of the firstborn?  I think the underlying principle is that we need to give the first portion to God.  For instance, although it's partially just symbolic, the first check I write after every payday is my gift to the church.  It's a reminder that what I give God comes first, not after everything else is taken care of.
- Verse 13 - Basically this means: donkeys are sufficiently important to your agriculture that I don't want you do sacrifice them; instead sacrifice a lamb in their place. 

If you want to read the chapter online, here’s a link.
